Disclosure: I received a book for review purposes. All opinions are my own. This tour is apart of Premier Virtual Author Book Tours.
It’s always amazing to me how one person can have an affect over so many, or how each individual has a very unique story to tell the world. And of all people living on this Earth, we each choose to live life our own ways.
At the same time, that’s exactly what makes the world so beautiful, and oh so diverse too. It’s in those moments that we truly need to embrace each story, each human that crosses our path, and remember, for that second, this is what life is truly about.
As I sat down to read, “The Life and Times of Richard Musto,” I had no idea what to expect, but in a way, it told more than just one story, but a story of many. From Richard Musto, the story behind the book and his life on the streets of New York.
For many, this is the kind of story people have been waiting to read, to learn about the man on the street, and how he wound up there. To learn about the man on the street and learn his story, and to learn about the man on the street, and realize, that yes, he is human, he is real, and he is very much alive.
But this book also tells the story of the Author. Through his artistic expression as a poet, through his words, and how he was drawn to Richard, and in a way, has shown us, the deepest truth of all, what it is like to be human, to be drawn to others.
And yet, there is still one other story to be told, and that is through the photographer. The one that sees what is happening around him, and through is creative vision, showcases the stories of others.
But combined into one book, this “The Life and Times of Richard Musto” is born. A very unique, one of a kind book that highlights one mans life, and the story of the author as they develop a deep rooted friendship.
